Mai Hong Ngoc, known professionally as Đông Nhi, was born in Ha Noi, Vietnam, on October 13, 1988. Her family relocated to Ho Chi Minh City when she was two years old, where her musical talent developed at a young age. Despite facing initial rejections in singing contests, she secured a position as a singer with the NewGen recording company. Her early singles “Chang Baby Milo” and “Du quay tinh yeu” became popular teen-pop hits, frequently requested on radio. After a brief hiatus, Đông Nhi independently released her debut single, “Khóc” (Cry), in 2008, which gained recognition and led to her signing with Tinu Production Company. Her official debut album, *The First Step*, released in 2009, earned the Favorite Album Award at the HTV Awards and reached the top 10 at the Zing Music Awards. This period marked the beginning of her consistent success in the Vietnamese music industry.
Throughout her career, Đông Nhi has accumulated 68 international and national awards, including the Best Southeast Asian Act at the MTV EMA in 2016. She has released 48 songs, encompassing two albums and multiple EPs such as *The Singer* (2011) and *Xin Anh Đừng* (2017). Her musical evolution saw her move towards EDM, leading to breakthrough successes with hits like “I Wanna Dance” (2014) and “Vì Ai Vì Anh (Stop Loving You)” (2015). Beyond music, Đông Nhi has expanded her influence as a coach on *The Voice Kids of Vietnam* (2016) and *The Voice Vietnam* (2017), contributing to the development of new talent. She is recognized by Forbes Vietnam as one of the top 50 women of influence in the communication and entertainment sector, underscoring her broad impact both artistically and commercially.
In her personal life, Đông Nhi married singer Ông Cao Thắng in November 2019, and they have two daughters, born in October 2020 and August 2024. Her public image is further enhanced by her engagement in social initiatives, notably as a WildAid ambassador for rhinos, advocating for wildlife conservation. Her consistent presence in media, coupled with her artistic and personal achievements, has solidified her status as a revered figure in Vietnamese entertainment. Her ability to blend commercial success with influential roles in coaching and advocacy showcases a multifaceted career built on talent and dedication.
